What a line up.
I saw this impressive line up of LCs - sadly I'd left my camera in the car so only had my phone on me so it isn't the best image.
As anyone familiar with my Flickr photostream probably knows, I used to race a 250LC back in the 1980s.
I wasn't in the ProAm series - I was definitely at the bottom end of the "Am" scale but what a great time we had.
If you likie this kind of stuff, please feel free to check out my Flickr "Yamaha" set:-

The RBC Canadian Open, now in its 100th year running kicks off this week, July 20th-26th, 2009 at Glen Abbey in the beautiful town of Oakville, Ontario the place we call home.
Last Monday, The Wine Ladies along with other media personalities participated in the RBC Avion Media putting challenge in an attempt to qualify to win a $200.000 prize package… $100.000 to be shared between the two sponsored charities; the Mike Weir Foundation and on a local level the charity Reach Out Centre for Kids Our dreams to win an additional $100,000 for The Wine Ladies personally were dashed when Susanne’s game peaked in the practice round and Georgia’s hole in ones weren’t enough to take us to the next round. It’s too late for us but not for you!
Take your shot at $100,000 at the Royal Bank Plaza www.rbcaviongolfchallenge.com/default.aspx

This is the 2nd year that RBC is the official title sponsor of the Canadian Open and is dedicated to the preservation of this historic national treasure of the Canadian sports scene. A new event kicks off the festivities this year, the Mike Weir Charity Classic takes place on Monday July 20th, 2009. All in support of the Mike Weir Foundation, founded in 2004 and dedicated to helping children’s physical, emotional, educational and financial needs. Since its inception the foundation has raised over $5 million. The Mark Weir Foundation is the official charity of the RCGA for the next 5 years and the goal is to help raise a minimum of $1,000,000 a year for the next 5 years.
With the 100th playing of the RBC Canadian Open, we thought we’d get into the swing of things, so we were joined live in studio with President Barry Katzman of Mike Weir Estate Winery to learn about Mike Weir’s wines, his foundation, the classic and to get a few tips on our game, Sean Casey, Head Teaching Professional at Glen Abbey.
